34 Appendix Strategy Performance For purposes of investment performance comparisons, strategies are an aggregation of discretionary portfolios (separate accounts, investment funds, and other products) into a single group that represents a particular investment objective. In the case of separate accounts, the investment performance of the account is based upon the performance of the strategy to which the account has been assigned. Each of our asset managers has its own specific guidelines for including portfolios in their strategies. For those managers which manage both separate accounts and investment funds in the same strategy, the performance comparison for all of the assets is based upon the performance of the separate account. Approximately eighty-eight percent of total AUM is included in strategy AUM as of March 31, 2017, although not all strategies have three, five, and ten year histories. Total strategy AUM includes liquidity assets. Certain assets are not included in reported performance comparisons. These include: accounts that are not managed in accordance with the guidelines outlined above; accounts in strategies not marketed to potential clients; accounts that have not yet been assigned to a strategy; and certain smaller products at some of our affiliates. Past performance is not indicative of future results. For AUM included in institutional and retail separate accounts and investment funds managed in the same strategy as separate accounts, performance comparisons are based on gross-of-fee performance. For investment funds which are not managed in a separate account format, performance comparisons are based on net-of-fee performance. Funds-of-hedge funds generally do not have specified benchmarks. For purposes of this comparison, performance of those products is net-of-fees, and is compared to the relevant HFRX index. These performance comparisons do not reflect the actual performance of any specific separate account or investment fund; individual separate account and investment fund performance may differ.

40 Appendix Non-GAAP Parent Operating Margin Parent Operating Margin is a performance measure calculated by dividing Parent Operating Income by Parent Revenue. Parent Revenue is calculated from our Operating Revenues, adjusted to add back net investment advisory fees eliminated upon consolidation of investment vehicles, less Distribution and Servicing Expenses, which we use as an approximate measure of revenues that are passed through to third parties, and less affiliates operating expenses and noncontrolling interests, and adjusted for certain affiliate expenses, such as those that arise from acquisitions, related restructurings, MEP issuances and impairment charges. These adjustments include acquisition charges and transition/restructuring charges. We reduce revenues by certain operating expenses of our affiliates to represent the portion of revenues used by the affiliates to pay expenses and thus generating a measure of revenues that accrue to the parent company as profits from our affiliates. Parent Operating Income is calculated as Parent Revenue, less all corporate level expenses, also adjusted to exclude certain expenses such as those that arise from acquisitions, related restructurings, MEP issuances and impairment charges. Our corporate level ( Parent ) expenses consist of the expenses of our centralized distribution operations and other holding company functions. We believe that Parent Operating Margin is a useful assessment of our performance because it provides a measure of the revenues that accrue to the benefit of the parent from affiliates to support parent-level expenses. Legg Mason uses Parent Operating Margin as a measure of management s effectiveness with the portion of revenues or profits it receives from affiliates. Our business model provides our affiliates the ability to operate with autonomy through revenue share and other arrangements. From time-to-time, Legg Mason may adjust its affiliate revenue share arrangements such that the affiliates incur more expenses, or retain more revenues than provided for by their revenue share arrangements. These adjustments appear in affiliate expenses. Non-revenue sharing affiliates are subject to a parent oversight budgeting process. Parent Operating Margin excludes items that have no net impact on Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Legg Mason, Inc. and indicates the operating margin of our Parent operations without the distribution revenues that are passed through to third parties as a direct cost of selling our products, the portion of revenues aligned to the operating expenses incurred by our advisory affiliates, and the impact of the consolidation of certain investment vehicles described above. This measure is not intended to indicate the margin of our business as a whole and is provided in addition to measures applicable to the entire business such as operating margin calculated under GAAP, but is not a substitute for calculations of margins under GAAP, Parent Operating Margin is not comparable to non-gaap performance measures, including measures of adjusted margins of other companies, because Parent Operating Margin is fundamentally different from these measures because it excludes all expenses of our affiliates.
